We walk through life everyday in a continuous loop.

We don't stop for one moment, not even to take a look.

Around us is the beauty of nature, the world that has been given to us.

However, we don't appreciate the little things we haev as we get on the bus.

Whether it be going to work or getting up every day, we aren't thankful for what we have.

We can only complain about what we don't have.

Yet, there's the people that can live happily with nothing,

And there's the people who will never be satisfied even with everything.

We learn morals, manners, and responsibility in school.

Yet outside, reality is cruel.

Reality opens our eyes from the little child in us that has been sheltered,

And thrusts it into the open world.

Little did we know as a child, reality does not always stop to help you.

Reality strikes you in the face until you have enough courage to strike back.

Reality will not bend to your will unless you choose the reality you live in.

Reality introduces us to what we should be thankful for.

However, it seems like most of us still can't get past our sheltered lives.

This moment on, that idea stops.

It doesn't require a tantrum, a dance, or a hop.

All you need is to step back, relax, and look around you.

The world is filled with magnificent objects, scenery, and hues.

And the world was made, just for you.

Just for you to appreciate.

So that you can finally step into the world of reality- which becomes beautiful in a matter of seconds.

Reality. Start enjoying it before it's too late.
